How to overcome Percocet addiction

One might like to know a little bit about the history of Percocet it was invented in Germany in 1916 along with a slew of other drugs that were created to try to improve the number one existing pain reliever called morphine. Oxycodone is an opiate drug extracted from opium-derived thebaine which is the main ingredient in Percocet. Percocet is intended for the relief of moderate to severe pain.

Here is a list of drugs that contain Oxycodone the first four are the same as percocet made by different drug companies. The later contain Oxycodone and ibuprofen. These drugs are all habit forming but a better word here is would be that Percocet is addicting and caution should be used when ever any of these drugs are used!

Percocet, Endocet, Tylox, Roxicet); with aspirin (e.g., Percodan, Endodan, Roxiprin); and with ibuprofen.

Now I know that a lot of people become addicted to this drug in a variety of ways; for instance, they start out taking it for severe pain and end up taking more than was prescribed and the end result was Percocet addiction. Believe me I know how often this happens that’s why I always try to suggest to people that if they can get by with something like Motrin or some other over the counter do so. I mean if you really need it by all means take it I am not a Doctor. A lot of the time the first thing a Dr. does when one comes in with some type of pain is to write a prescription which contains Oxycodone or hydrocodone.

Then there are those who we will call Dr. Seekers they are the ones who will fake one type of pain or another other and specifically ask for the type of drug they happen to be seeking that day. Trust me here I have been there and done that. We used to have a string of Dr’s from here to Tim buck Too and we knew what they would write for before we went to see them. Do not do as I did the result could be the same as me 30 plus hard years of addiction.
